ARTIST STATEMENT In my current work I am creating paintings that explore spirit, unseen and natural forces, and physical space
as abstract expressionist images. The paintings are not a literal depiction of an external place, but are creations born from my
memories, imagination, and subconscious – an internal landscape. I am interested in making highly subjective works that evade a single i
nterpretation. I explore the mind – body connection through my process, focusing on stream of consciousness painting. I am
compelled to make works that, for me, are like maps to a higher place. I see my canvases as symbolic windows through which I am looking
into and out of for my images. When I am painting, I am connected to something larger than myself, actively participating in a
search for understanding, balance, serendipity, and inspiration.
